WINE DESCRIPTION
Domaine Charles Audoin, situated in Marsannay, Burgundy, showcases the unique terroir of this appellation. Despite gaining its village appellation in 1987, later than its neighbors, Marsannay has become Burgundy's best value for money in the Côte de Nuits. Cyril Audoin, the fifth-generation winemaker, leads the domaine covering 14 hectares. Specializing in red Marsannay, with even the Bourgogne rouge being a disguised Marsannay, the domaine offers seven red cuvées and four white. The historical focus on rosé presents both challenges and uniqueness. Notable cuvées like Clos du Roy, Les Longeroies, Charme aux Prêtres, Clos de Jeu, and Les Favières exhibit the diverse terroirs within Marsannay.
NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
The Charles Audoin Bourgogne is a delightful wine with the essence of the Burgundy region.It is crafted with precision and care, resulting in a wine that is both elegant and approachable.
On the nose, this wine offers a bouquet of red fruits, such as cherries and raspberries, accompanied by subtle floral notes. There is also a hint of earthiness, adding depth and complexity to the aroma.
The palate is well-balanced, with a medium body and silky tannins. The red fruit flavors continue to shine, complemented by a touch of spice and a gentle acidity. The finish is long and satisfying, leaving a lingering impression of fruit and a touch of minerality.
